No, I didn't find out yet if Eric Holder is responsible for Phillip Garrido's premature lease from prison back in the '80s, but Eric's whole family are from Barbadoes and there are a whale of a lot of Garridos living there. Could be his doggone cousin or something.

A major problem of libs and Dems is their failure to consider that opponents to their hare-brained schemes might have honest reasons.

Satire yes but.....

If the govt runs Psyc medicine and no one but government sponsored practioners are allowed and decrees of psyc doctors have an impact.

Folks you’ve just figured out the importance of govt healthcare to controlling the populace.
